I Want To Start A Consulting Company. Would You Like To Be A Partner? by Businesstools(m): 3:48am On Jul 24, 2014
Good day guys, some months ago, I came on this forum to solicit for partners who will join me in taking my CV writing business, CV Wizards to the next level. Here's the thread: https://www.nairaland.com/1480977/need-9-nairalanders-join-me A lot of people responded. Unfortunately, they had no value to add to the business and they were also not willing to contribute a kobo. Which means they were seeking for an opportunity to reap where they did not sow. Even the two holy books we know, the Bible and the Quran condemns that. I have since decided to manage the business alone.

Now to the issue at hand. An idea has occured to me to establish a management consulting firm. I have developed detailed strategies that can be implemented to turn this idea into a business empire worth millions of naira. I have gone as far as obtaining a consulting file from a reputable American consultant who specializes in consulting for small and medium-sized businesses. The file contains all the reports he has submitted to his clients in the past 43 years and other consulting tools (I don't want to go into details). It's going to be an overwhelming task running the consulting business on the side with CV Wizards. But dropping CV Wizards is not an option. So, I need partners onboard. Individuals who have got something to offer, management acumen, b2b marketing expertise, consulting experience, funds (Don't get scared. The startup capital is not up to a million naira, since the major expenses is rent and marketing). If you're in, kindly indicate (Serious people only). My email address is patrickokunima@gmail.com if you'll like to contact me privately. Thank you.

Do you have any management business experience? Have you worked before ? what is your background. I am asking all these questions because you need a substancial level of experience to plunge into this type of busssiness

I have not handled a formal business consulting project before, but I've successfully founded and managed my own business, CV Wizards. I have a B.Sc. in Accounting from the University of Benin and almost done with my MBA. Like I said, I've in my possession a consulting file from a retired American mangement consultant. The file contains all the reports he submitted to his clients for over 40 years. When I get a client, all I need to do is to search for a related case, customize and send the report.

I like your idea and I am interested in working with you. Your CV Wizard should be something that will launch you into greater things. You can partner with Jobberman to offer applicants on Jobberman discount to review and edit their CV before submitting.

I will also suggest you start small with your consulting business. There are lots of small and medium scale businesses in Nigeria thaat are faced with different challenges due to the harsh operating environment in Nigeria.

I would have loved to offer more suggestions but I'm in a rush.

OK Great! Looking at your above reply, and the WHO.IS record on CVWizards.com , I can see it was formed 2013 – How have your sales/progress been?

Secondly, Your proposed management consulting firm what would be the services you render? Could you bullet point them?

One thing about setting up a consulting firm(“IT consulting” for example) is that : you might have to be a specialist in one area at Least

Actually, I started writing CVs in 2011 using the name CV World (Not registered). I didn't have a website then. (Sorry, my attention is needed. Will be back)
